PICS: Marussia MR02

5 February 2013

Marussia became the ninth team to reveal its 2013 challenger with the covers coming off the MR02 on Tuesday morning prior to the start of testing at Jerez.

Unlike previous efforts from the Manor Motorsport-run team, the MR02 has been designed with the use of a wind tunnel, whereas previously, the team used CFD to design its cars – the change in design coming after the split with Wirth Research in mid-2011.

Thus far, the team has only signed Max Chilton for the new season with the departure of Timo Glock having opened up a vacancy that is expected to be filled by Luiz Razia.
